Happy New Year!

Hope everyone had a safe and happy new year! I did, just relaxed at home. Sometimes that's the best kind.

I just wanted to share a couple of homemade Christmas presents that I received this year for Christmas. My daughter, Chelsey, made me this beautiful plate in her art class that I just love. Something to cherish forever. She was very excited to give it to us and I think it turned out beautiful.

My very good friend, Sharron made me the beautiful basket filled with glass jars that she decorated - sooooo pretty! I love the colors, pom poms, and colored sparkles! The vintage post card is also one of my favorites. They are filled with goodies and in a baskets covered in tulle and lace. She and her husband made me the beautiful angel on my china cabinet- he cut the wings out which are made of old ceiling tin. I was so touched that she went to so much work to make me something that she knew I would just love!!

I love homemade gifts and just wanted to share these with you as they are all so special!!

My Sabby Angel.....I will keeping this out all year!
